Answer:

x=3 and x=-1.25

Step-by-step explanation:

4x^2-7x=15

subtract 15 from each side:

4x^2-7x-15=0

factor (trying different numbers that the sum is 7 and the quotient is 15)

(2x-6 )(2x+2.5 )=0

2x-6=0 add 6 to each side

2x=6

x=3

2x+2.5=0 subtract 2.5 from each side

2x=-2.5

x=-1.25

Answer:

y= x-2
y = 4/5 x+39/5

Step-by-step explanation:

$(3,1) and\:perpendicular \:to \: y = -x+1\\(3,1) = (x,y)\\m = -1\\In\: perpendicularism ; m_2 = \frac{-1}{m_1} \\m_2 = \frac{-1}{-1} \\m_2 =1\\y = mx+c\\1 = 1(3) +c\\1=3+c\\1-3=c\\-2 =c\\Substitute \:new \:values\:into\\y =mx+c\\y = 1x -2\\y = x-2$

$(-1,7) =(x_1,y_1)\\\\5y = 4x+5\\\\Write\:in\:y=mx+c\:form\\\frac{5y}{5} = \frac{4}{5} x + \frac{5}{5} \\y = \frac{4}{5} x +1\\m = \frac{4}{5} \\\\y -y_1=m(x-x_1)\\y-7=\frac{4}{5} (x -(-1)\\y -7 = 4/5(x+1)\\y -7 = 4/5x +4/5\\\\y = \frac{4}{5} x+\frac{4}{5} +7\\\\y = \frac{4}{5} x +39/5$
